Baltimore, Md. – Sunshine and dry skies will dominate Maryland through Monday, but rain and thunderstorms are expected to move in by Tuesday night, potentially disrupting commutes and outdoor plans across the state.
According to the National Weather Service Baltimore/Washington, a high-pressure system is holding conditions calm through early week. Sunday and Monday will bring partly cloudy skies and highs in the 70s to low 80s. Overnight lows are expected to dip into the 40s and 50s. However, by Tuesday afternoon, a low-pressure system sweeping in from the Midwest will reach the mid-Atlantic, bringing scattered showers and thunderstorms to the region.
